<p>[QUOTE="dltsrq, post: 2357338, member: 75482"]Your coin appears to be of Alexander I Balas. The date on reverse ZΞP (167) or EΞP (165) in the Seleukid era equates to 146/5 BC or 144/3 respectively. The OP photo is very "noisy". I am not an expert on Seleukid coins and would not want to comment on authenticity one way or the other based upon it. The monogram below the date does not match any of the monograms I could find on tetradrachms of Balas in a quick search online and in BMC.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
